RockyMountainOySker Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Not that anyone here really cares but Kansas just got two highly touted QB transfers in Dayne Crist (Notre Damn) and Jake Heaps (BYU). Both of these guys were 5 stars out of high school, if I remember correctly. I'm biased as I'm a KU alum but I'm glad to see the program moving in the right direction. I just wish Gill could have made it happen. Quote Link to comment
gbr93 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 What was Heaps' reason for transferring? Quote Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 What was Heaps' reason for transferring? Was benched at the beginning of the year for whomever is starting for them now. The offense took off, and he was left standing at the station. Now he's a little butthurt and in today's self entitlement age, he is better than backup Quote Link to comment
Hercules Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 glad to see the program moving in the right direction. We'll see... Quote Link to comment
ronsss Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 kansas got a big name coach....he will bring players in . Quote Link to comment
gobiggergoredder Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 What was Heaps' reason for transferring? I'm not trying to be a dick, but you clearly haven't seen a BYU game this year. Heaps is terrible. He literately can't hit a guy standing alone by himself. They had no offense. They throw Nelson in, kind of scrappy gunslinger, and start winning. Heaps being benched is the only reason they were able to get in a bowl. Quote Link to comment
gbr93 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Yeah I never watched a game of theirs. I just thought I remembered him playing well the year before so I wasn't sure. Maybe I'm thinking of someone else. Quote Link to comment
dylan Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 i'll believe KU is moving in the right direction when i see it. weiss has a poor record as a college coach at ND and florida. i doubt he'll do better at KU. i've cheered for KU for years, but a program that fires gill for this guy deserves what they get. 1 Quote Link to comment
RockyMountainOySker Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 Another good thing is how the timing works out for both QBs. Dayne Crist has just one season of elligibility, while Heaps has to sit out a year (2 years after). Moving in the right direction starts with collecting talent, especially when the kitchen is completely bare. Quote Link to comment
flatwaterfan Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 The one thing I would not do as an upper classmen who is transferring as a pro-style QB and that is to go to a program that's rebuilding. KU ranks towards the bottom in sacks given up and total offense. They are going to get beat up. What are they thinking? Just my opinion. Quote Link to comment

Maybe, but they only have to play Oklahoma, okie st, and Texas. The rest of their schedule is weak. Quote Link to comment
